It can be sort of true though. You know I know how to drive eco and have for a long time. The F250 460V8 5sp pretty much delivered the same fe no matter what- empty, laden, headwind, tailwind. I think such vehicles normally tap into very little of their power and as such the throttle position doesn't have to change much for varying conditions, unlike our little low powered stuff.
